Was a fantastic trek, your group will make it for you though. The scenery was beautiful, although coming from New Zealand meant you may not find it as breathtaking as other people. Lots of local people whom we passed on the way, didn´t see a lot in the actual villages we past which was a shame.

The Lost City itself is small, but listening to the history is amazing.

We had a great guide called Wilson, and excellent chef which meant we all looked forward to the meals and oreos!
